Hi… my name is Tahoe,

Adopted 10-30-16

These days, I’m so happy-go-lucky that I look back only to say an enormous thank you to the people who saved my life! Hard to believe now, but not long ago I was in rough shape—weak, dehydrated, sick, and lost in the desert. Then two young women appeared. If they hadn’t stopped—well, we don’t have to think about that because they did rescue me, bless them! They brought me here, and soon I was receiving proper medical care. With that, plus comfort and love, I started to thrive! Now, I run and play every day, have lots of friends, and enjoy life as a bright, happy puppy with a future to match. A handsome Shepherd mix male, I’m hoping you agree I have the makings of a terrific lifelong companion for you.

Hi… my name is Ferdinand,

Adopted October 16, 2016

Today is a wonderful day! You’re reading my story, maybe becoming my friend, and I’m safe and cared for here at TALGV. Oh, I know life’s not perfect. After all, I was a stray, a dog without love or a home. But I have a gift that helps: An abundance of joy! Sometimes I’m so happy to see someone, I wiggle from head to tail! And if you want to teach me things, I’d be more than glad to work hard at pleasing you. I’m a 1-year-old male with a soft black and white coat, about 50 pounds, and volunteers here say I’m part Border Collie, part angel. They think I’m smart, sweet, and charming. Won’t you please come visit today and see if you agree? We may just be meant for each other!

Hi… my name is Frisco,

Adopted 1-24-17

I can be a very well-behaved fellow, and I’m also a lively, energetic dog who can play like there’s no tomorrow! My rescuer found me near a casino, just walking down the street alone. He took me home that night and gave me food and water; I was too thin when found, so his kindness was much appreciated. He said I was okay being with his shepherd mix dog, and already knew some commands, like “sit,” “paw,” and “lay down.” After coming to TALGV, I’ve enjoyed hearing the volunteers say my handsome appearance makes me look dignified, but please remember that I’m playful, too, and love to have fun. I’m an 18-month-old Staffie mix male, tan and white, 50+ pounds, who’s eager to give all the best parts of me to you!

Adopted October 6, 2016

SUNNY is a playful and smart 55-pound 2-year-old Shepherd/ Husky mix who needs a new home as rescuer is unable to keep her. She has a beautiful white coat, is housebroken, and asks to go out. She is spayed, is up to date with shots, and is microchipped. Sunny walks on leash, knows “back” and “wait” and is working on other commands and house manners, but she learns quickly when treats are rewarded. She is a bit slow to warm up but wants to be friendly with people. Sunny needs lots of exercise and a secure fenced-in yard is advisable; she would do best with another dog of same size to play with but can be protective of owner. There is no adoption fee for this special girl.

If you will welcome Sunny into your home as part of your family, please call Vanity between 10 AM and 8 PM at 520-403-1489.

Hi… my name is Louie,

Adopted October 15, 2016

I’m a popular pup with lots of great friends, but in my own little way—from my puppy point of view—I know life will be even better when I belong to someone! My finder couldn’t keep me and so left me at a vet’s office. They took care of me overnight and then brought me here, where I’ve heard lots about dogs and happy people taking them home. Those stories help me believe there’s a wonderful someone for me, too. I’m 2 months old, an adorable tan and white Staffie mix male, 12 pounds and growing. What’s big in my little life? People and playing! Plus toys, eating, napping—it’s all good. So, how about we share this wonderful life! Make me yours and I’ll do my best to make you happy forever.

Hi… my name is Blondie,

Adopted October 12, 2016

I had puppies not too long ago, so I know about that big responsibility—making sure everyone is present and accounted for, fed and protected. But now that my pups are growing and moving on to their own homes, I can relax a bit and enjoy a little extra attention for me, too! I’d almost forgotten how nice it is to have someone pet your head, take you for a walk in the sunshine, and talk kindly. Some of that kind talk is complimentary about my big brown eyes and soft blonde coat, but mainly I just love the company. I have my figure back, now just 34 pounds—a nice size for many different households—so how about we meet today and see if we’re a nice fit into each other’s hearts, too.

Hi… my name is Sonny,

Adopted 10-29-16

My adorable sister, Cher, and I were adopted three months ago, when we were 3-month-old puppies, but that didn’t work out. The people said we were too active, so I’ll be completely upfront in telling you I am an active 6-month-old puppy. I love playing with my sister and our toys, I’m curious about the world around me, and have the energy and eagerness to learn good-dog things to please you! Already, I know to sit when you say to (usually), and am getting good at walking on a leash. My best features? I’d say being fun-loving, sometimes just plain funny, and my cute puppy personality. But let’s meet and you decide! I’m a Shepherd mix male, 33 pounds, white, black and brown, and so ready to be the happy puppy in your life!

Hi… my name is Star,

Adopted 12-18-16

My person was very sad to let me go, but her own health issue couldn’t be ignored. We’d been together my whole life, so it’s been a major change for me. I’ve been scared and lonely, but now I understand that “home” will be a new place. I’m a 6-year-old Chihuahua/Rat Terrier mix female, and I’m expecting a nice long future with my new someone, maybe even more love and fun than I could imagine! Once I get over my shyness, I’ll do my part, too. Fetch is my favorite game (although I need instruction on bringing the toy all the way back), and I know commands like sit and stay. Best of all, since I want love, I know how to give lots of it, too. Won’t you give me a visit today?
